Killen Sock Yarn from Black Isle Yarns is here at The Woolly Thistle and we couldn't be happier. Made up of Bluefaced Leister and Mohair and available in a gorgeous array of colors. Killen Sock Yarn is spun in Yorkshire with a high twist and is intended as a sock yarn but it is well suited to shawls and light weight garments! Killen Sock has a lot of drape and holds lace well. It blooms, with a slight halo, on washing and blocking. If you are knitting socks, a tight gauge is recommended for increased strength.

Indulge your creative spirit with Killen Sock Yarn and let your imagination run wild. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting out, this yarn might be the perfect inspiration for your next project.
